The vulnerability CVE-2025-39371 is a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) issue in the Sanjeev Mohindra Author Box Plugin With Different Description, versions up to 1.3.5. CSRF vulnerabilities allow attackers to induce authenticated users to perform unwanted actions without their consent.

There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time. The vulnerability is published and recognized by Patchstack and CISA enrichment is noted.
